ALFRED, Maine — State police say a York County Sheriff’s Office transport van was struck this morning by a tractor trailer truck.

The collision took place about 8:30 a.m. on Route 111 in Alfred. Troopers said the van had stopped in the breakdown lane to make a phone call. The van was operated by Roger Lanoie, 51, of Shapleigh and the only passenger was Brian Maddox 56, (hometown not immediately known). Both are employed as corrections officers by the York Sheriff’s Office.

A 2003 Mack tractor trailer operated by Edward Reilly, 49, of Rochester, N.H., was traveling behind the van. Reilly told troopers that as he approached the van he saw an oncoming passenger car swerve into his lane. While the truck’s tractor cleared the van, the trailer portion struck the driver’s side.

Maddox was transported by ambulance to Goodall hospital for back pain and Lanoie was driven to the hospital for minor injuries. Reilly was charged with failing to maintain control of his vehicle. Lanoie was charged with operating after suspension of his driver’s license. His license had been suspended for failing to pay a fine for a seat belt violation.
